Whole grains bring distinct flavours, textures and nutrition to baked goods. Baker and author Chad Robertson, co-owner of Tartine Bakery in San Francisco, first inspired home bakers with Tartine (Chronicle Books, 2006), which he co-wrote with Elisabeth Prueitt – his business partner and wife – and then Tartine Bread (Chronicle Books, 2010). In Tartine Book No. 3 (Chronicle Books, 2013), Robertson shares discoveries made during a two-year period devoted to baking with whole grains.
